It's Carnival Time!

We spent Mardi Gras day in Lafayette, where the weather was quite questionable, but the fun was undeniable. I couldn't believe that this was Emma and Caroline's THIRD Mardi Gras! They certainly looked like pros, though, as they waved their arms and shouted for beads. Of course, there was lots of dancing to the music and running with their cousins, too. As the saying goes, "a good time was had by all."

Lucas' boss Bruce and Uncle Mike Michot throwing beads to us. Their float stopped right in front of us for a VERY long time!

  1. I hope the girls were better at catching beads than their nonna!
